* Avoid non-integers in intermediate computations in Math::BigInt::Calc. This
causes errors due to rounding issues, e.g., 47265625999999999 / 1000000000
is 47265626 with double precision.
* Remove api_version() and the corresponding test file. There is no need to
check which methods are supported by a backend library now that each backend
library is a subclass of Math::BigInt::Lib. Methods not provided in the
backend library are provided by the parent class.
* Add to_ieee745() and from_ieee754().
* Add backermann() and ackermann() for the Ackermann function.
* Add buparrow() and uparrow() for Knuth's up-arrow notation.
* Add information about the github repository.
* Update links in SUPPORT section in POD.
* Fix bpow(). It returned NaN when it should truncate to zero.
* Make blsft() in Math::BigInt allow bases up until the largest unsigned
integer.
* Make _lsft() in Math::BigInt::Calc handle an arbitrarily large base.
* Add new methods bdigitsum() and digitsum() to Math::BigInt. Add new method
_digitsum() to Math::BigInt::Lib.
* Add new methods is_non_negative() and is_non_positive().
* Extend the default collation sequence used by to_base() and from_base() to
all the 94 printable ASCII characters except blank/space.
* Make new() in Math::BigFloat handle octal floating point numbers.
* Slightly more robust t/01load.t.
* Remove unused variables.
* Miscellaneous code cleanup.

* Fix an old in the Math::BigFloat methods as_hex(), as_oct(), and as_bin()
methods resulting in loss of accuracy. This bug was introduced in bug in
Math-BigInt-1.76. Due to a naive copy and paste by me, and lack of tests,
this bug was also present in the newer to_hex(), to_oct(), and to_bin()
methods. This shows the bug, as it did not print "0xffff...":
print Math::BigFloat -> from_hex("f" x 30) -> as_hex();
* Fix incorrect formatting in the output from the Math::BigFloat methods
to_hex(), to_oct(), and to_bin() when the output was zero. A prefix was
added when it shouldn't have been.
* Add tests to bigintpm.inc and bigfltpm.inc for better testing of as_hex(),
as_oct(), and as_bin() as well as to_hex(), to_oct(), and to_bin().
* "Synchronize" tests and code formatting in bigintpm.inc and bigfltpm.inc.

* CPAN RT #120240 revealed that the problems with undefined values is still
present. After a close examination, I believe the only way to get this
really working is to to make blog() call objectify() differently depending
on whether the base for the logarithm is undefined or not. That way we can
avoid objectify() converting the undefined value to a zero. Ideally, we

* Document actual behaviour of from_xxx() methods. [perl #85334] (Peter John
Acklam)
* Make bmuladd() able to handle third arg properly. [perl #85482] (Peter John
Acklam)
* Add sign function bsgn() as a complement to babs(). (Peter John Acklam)
* Fix objectify()'s handling of "foreign objects". (RT #16221 and #52124)

* Rewrap some verbatim pod in Math::BigInt. (Father Chrysostomos)
* Correct links to sections. (Alexandr Ciornii)
* Remove incorrect formatting inside verbatim paragraphs. (Alexandr Ciornii)
* Upgrade bundled modules in "inc" to latest version. (Peter John Acklam)
* Include "^MYMETA\.(yml|json)\z" in MANIFEST.SKIP. Whereas META.* are
generated by the distribution author at packaging time, MYMETA.* are
generated by the end user at configure time after any dynamic dependencies
are known. (Peter John Acklam)
